I have had this phone since 11/03. I originally chose it because I wanted a flip phone, and this one was available free on the Orange contract deal.
On the whole it's been a good buy. The menu is easy to use and it's simple to find names, send txts etc. The display is nice and bright and easy to read and it feels comfortable when using it.
The phone still looks good after 9 months, although the mirror/screen has got scratched from being tossed about in my handbag.
The hands free kit that comes with the phone is also useful, although I always have trouble keeping earpieces in my ear! Would have been even better if an 'in car' charger had also been provided.
On the down side, the camera is a waste of space, the pics are either very dark or very grainy. I've tried every permetation of setting and have not been able to take a decent photograph yet. However, the camera IS easy to use and the swivel screen is a great idea.
The only other complaint is that, even on the highest setting, the ring tone can't always be heard in my bag. After speaking to other people with different phones, this seems to be a common fault with polyphonic ring tones.
In conclusion, if you want a flip phone that looks nice and is easy to use then I would thoroughly recommend the LG7100.... but if you want to take and send a lot of pictures on your phone, then I would suggest you consider other models first.
